Homeworld 3Homeworld 3 offers a long-awaited continuation of a science-fiction world that began 25 years ago.
“Yeah, and also everybody was kind of on board with that,” Cirulis says.

“The previous Homeworlds have always brought everything back together from where it started.
So the Homeworld universe is wide open at this point.”

Imogen S’Jet is one of the central characters in Homeworld 3.
A lot of that challenge came down to the nature of the characters.
“So how does Imogen push [Isaac] to grow?
“The genre loves to hang on to the cliche that military, they’re stoic all the time.
Ships tear each other apart in Homeworld 3.
Never doubting themselves,” he says.
“We tried to show that the legend is built of the high points, not the reality.
“That’s what Imogen kinda needed to realize.
We all did the best we could, right?'
And they’re fighting someone who chose not to do the best they could.”
Cirulis and Joyce both affirm that this was explicitly by design.
Meanwhile, Imogen represents the “pivot” between the two.
“Imogen’s like ‘I choose my own.
Because I will not be drawn into the deadly depths of [being a] control freak.'”
“We tried to show that the legend is built of the high points, not the reality.”
“Like, what do we think we remember about Homeworld?
What do we like about it?
What was the kernel that we took forward that fans resonated with and build that up again?
Then future cast it as well and just set it in the stars.”
Everybody knows what we’re talking about.
Off we go!’
It’s like ‘…oh, good point.'”
“And, you know, Lin and I got to craft three aspects of the goddess, right?
“Isaac is pivotal, Imogen is pivotal, and they are individuals.
Their life stories and their lives’ experience make a difference.
Isaac truly believes that the burden has to remain.”
Homeworld 3 is currently available on Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
